FLINT, Michigan — Flint Mayor Dayne Walling was featured on Fox Business Network talking about the city's dire financial situation.
In the three-minute segment, posted today on YouTube.com, Walling mentions the city's plan to issue a multimillion-dollar bond to cover the deficit, as well as his goal of getting double-digit concessions from the city's union groups.
Walling has previously said the city is headed to arbitration with some of its unions.
"It's been tough going but I'm committed to staying at the table," Walling said.
He also said the city is making public safety a greater percentage of the general fund than ever before. |
